Summary · why it matters

Morgan Stanley's North Haven Private Income Fund will fulfill roughly 43% of second-quarter withdrawal requests after investors sought to redeem 11.6% of units outstanding, more than double the fund's 5% quarterly repurchase cap. The $7 billion fund will accept repurchases equal to 5% of units outstanding as of March 31, 2026, leaving the remainder unmet, with a net impact on net asset value of approximately $102 million, or about 3.2% of its March 31 value. Investors locked out of a full exit during the first quarter's 10.9% redemption pressure accounted for more than half of this quarter's requests. Morgan Stanley Private Credit noted stabilization in request activity may indicate durability in the investor base, while the fund held over $2.2 billion in undrawn debt capacity and cash as of May 31, 2026, and a debt-to-NAV ratio of 0.97x. At the related but smaller North Haven Private Income Fund A, withdrawal requests totaled 7.2% of units, with only 5% to be redeemed under its standard cap. The broader non-traded private credit category saw outflows exceed fresh capital for the first time on record in the first quarter, with Apollo Global, Blackstone, and BlackRock among other managers restricting exits from their own vehicles.
